Very private, clean and nicely decorated. The unit is small but has everything needed right there available. Plan to leave any bulky things you don't need in your car. The deck around it on the outside of the unit it quite spacious. We used the BBQ. It was a little chilly outside so we missed out on some enjoyment of the deck areas. Nice gardens everywhere. There is a large fenced in, cut grass area where you park your car with small field behind it with a friendly pony.

We had a great stay. Very clean throughout with comfortable bed and furniture. The kitchen was excellent to cook in, with everything one could need. Host was responsive. The grounds were kept in great condition and we enjoyed the semi-rural location so close to town.

Best of the best!

I had a truly wonderful stay. Although I was traveling for work this location was serene and surrounded by beautiful nature - Perfect for disconnecting and unwinding after a long day. The home was clean, cozy and thoughtfully prepared, well equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Kathie was extremely responsive, making the entire experience seamless. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet escape. I hope to return again soon.
